Style is a transfer machine learning algorithm using neural networks VGG-19 (Artificial Neural Network, ANN) for works of art Mark the features retrieve 3-7 wherein the layer 17 and the layer 15 to digital more to next, on behalf of strokes works of art, texture;. the higher the level is involved composition, lighting and image structure through the dismantling, re-use artificial intelligence to reconstruct it become another style, the style that is transferred .
Prisma is a master of entertainment applications
The best-known example of a shift in style is the mobile App Prisma (Figure 1). Prisma, which hit the 7.5 million downloads in the iOS App Store for the first week, is a technology that leverages neural networks and artificial intelligence, Add a variety of artistic effects photo editing software for the user's photos, allowing users to convert photos into the painting style of each artist.
Figure 1 In the first week of the iOS App Store, Prisma hit more than 7.5 million downloads and is a photo editing software that uses neural networks and artificial intelligence to add a variety of artistic effects to users' photos.
Prisma is a big hit for purely entertaining applications, but the fact is that the technology behind the artificial intelligence style is not as high as it should be, technically it is technically easy to reproduce if the industry hopes to do something else with this technology But for many businesses, it's important to think further about how to find a profit model.
AI helps business design more efficiently
At present, many Chinese companies are actively developing real-time style transitions to make video more enjoyable. Prisma also solicited public-sector B2B cooperation on the official website. In addition to converting everyday photos to master style, there are many areas In the positive attempt to use the style transfer technology.Our team is also currently working with advertising companies, hoping to combine the style of transfer technology and commercial design.
For example, suppose a beverage company hopes to launch a series of animated bottle caps in conjunction with a well-known animated cartoon, which can then be implemented using style transitions. Artificial Intelligence can distinguish animation themes through hierarchical calculus The style, style, and then the style into the shape of the bottle.This will be able to produce a large number of design combinations in a very fast time.
However, although artificial intelligence can disassemble and analyze the style, there is no concept of beauty.Therefore, it is still unable to break away from the aesthetical judgment of the human brain when using the style in commercial design, and finally it is necessary to ask the designer to make the final adjustment. Although it can not replace the human brain, intelligence can produce a variety of design combinations at a very fast pace to further assist people's work, and similar changes will occur in many industries in the future.
Reduce the cost of video content AR / VR will be more popular
If the concept of "style" is to be further expanded in the next step, "clearness" can also be a style of presentation. The concept of style-shifting operations can also be used to make pictures infinitely enlarged without distortion through style-shifting technology No longer subject to the limitations of pixels.In addition, the style of transfer technology also allows artificial intelligence to automatically convert 2D video to 3D visualization, so in the future to expand the reality / virtual reality (AR / VR) by the movie content will be more The cheaper, after AR / VR images can be done at a lower cost solution, come back to more applications.
For example, Microsoft recently worked with cosmetic brands to develop cosmetic apps that allow users to choose what they want to show during a video conference, as it involves face-level sensing and is therefore very sophisticated Style applications. There are manufacturers to develop simulation technology, and are mainly done in the AR / VR way, the cost is very high.In the future, due to the development of artificial intelligence, will be able to film at a very low cost , And then use the style transfer to create 3D effects and clear images, rapid production of AR / VR required image content.
